The surnames I have in my family are: Kemp, Camp, Davis, Overholt, & Baker. Due to unusual circumstances, I was separated from My mother in 1970 & my Dad in 1975 . It took 10 yrs to find my Father & uncle. My brother David Andrew Kemp was named after my great-grandfather. I'm not sure if it's the David or Andrew or both. I know it's not from the Davis side, since that great grandfather was Calvin Davis. I have a photo of him holding my dad in 1915. My grandfather was Arden Elza Kemp, born 1889/90. I have documentation of him & my grandmother Hazel Davis, 1891, living in St. Joseph IN, Valparasio, Porter Co, & Hammond Lake Lake Co. IN. He had a sister, Myrtle [Myrla] Kemp [Overholt] 1871, who married William E. Overholt [187_?] is St. Joseph Co, 1901. They had two children, Ray V. Overholt, 1951, & [Mary] Fay Overholt, 1903. Ray married a Gertrude Lasko! rsski in 1938 in St. Jo. Co. I have a picture of Arden & Myrla taken sometime in the 40's. Arden had 3 children, Donald Arden, 1915, Kenneth Paul, 1917, & Dorothy Alice, 1921 --all are deceased now. My grandfather Arden's WWI regestration records SEEM to say he was born in [Crawford?] IN, but it is hard to make out the writing. In the census records it is stated Arden's parents were both born in Indiana. My father said he believed he [Arden's father] died before he was born & that he had several sons. That would make his life range somewhere between 1840 to 1915. I have pictures of Arden & family living in a house on the corner of Indiana & High St. [1923] in Granger, IN, St. Jo. Co. & several pictures on a beautiful farm somewhere in Indiana [[1925/26], with Calvin & Ellen Davis. My grandmother Hazel Davis belonged to the Women's Garden Club & there was a Kemp St. named after the family in Passedina Tx. In which I have a picture of their house there. My father, Donald, was! married 3 times --the last was my mother, Elizabeth Sue Ann [Camp] Ke mp, 1924-1972, from El Paso Texas [she used to joke about only having to change two letters when she got married]. She died two years after I was separated from her & is buried somewhere in El Paso Tx. Her sister was Frances [Camp] Baker, who married a twin, Dwight [Bud?] Baker, & she had paternal twins, Danny & Jenny in the El Paso area. I am in touch with my uncle's wife & her children in Tx, but am looking for any family. I was widowed 6 years ago, with six children uder the age of 13 & one more on the way. They are all older now --my oldest just 18 & youngest 5. It would be nice to have some family connections or cousins for them.
